Breakfast in Memphis. The Blue Plate Cafe.

We had an opporunity to check out the downtown location of Blue Plate Cafe recently. The restaurant is just a half block off the street car tracks in a lovely building that also doubles as an art gallery. Lots of beautifull art for sale. As soon as they get your drink order a basket of biscuits appears with a bowl of sausage gravy. The gravy was good although it could have used more sausage but the biscuits were thick and flaky,also VERY good. I had a bacon and cheddar omelet that was really good with plenty of bacon and sliced cheddar inside. The potatoes are called hash browns but are more what I call home fries. Either way they were perfectly done with a wonderful seasoning. Everyone working that morning was incredibly friendly and helpful.
